| Abstract | Spirituality, a basic characteristic of all people, is vital to health (; ) and therefore knowledge about this phenomenon is important for nurses. Australia's population has been defined as multicultural with successive Governments encouraging the maintenance of peoples' cultural heritage. Moreover, the Australian Council of Healthcare Standards (ACHS) state that nurses will meet the spiritual needs of individual patients (). The difficulty for Australian nurses is that no research has been conducted to ascertain the spiritual needs of patients and/or clients from the differing multicultural groups. In order to gain knowledge and understanding of patients and/or clients' spiritual needs I utilised the research skills of data collection and analysis. I then used the embodied themes from the data to inform my teaching in order that students would gain applicable knowledge and understanding about spirituality that was inclusive of the various multicultural groups. Although this project was conducted in Western Australia, the method could be adopted by nurses elsewhere in order to understand more about the spirituality of the population in which they practice. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
